Page 7: Satellite Reception
External Antenna (If Required) The placement of the GNSS antenna is crucial to the quality of the data recorded by VBOX Touch. Any metal close to a GNSS antenna can unpredictably disturb the signal due to interference from reflections of weak GNSS signals. - Page 8 Tall buildings or trees can block GNSS signals, causing a reduction in the number and quality of satellites being tracked, leading to inaccurate position measurements and a noisy velocity signal. GNSS works best in open areas/ Avoid tree-lined roads https://en.racelogic.support//Product_Info/Performance_Meters/VBOX_Touch/VBOX_Touch_V2/ Quick_Start_Guides_%E2%80%93_VBOX_Touch_V2/VBOX_Touch_V2_Lap_Timing_Mode_-_Quick_Start_Guide...
